May God bless and comfort the family of Chris Moon. He was a talented athlete who could have had a baseball scholarship, but chose instead to serve his country.

He was their only son. My heart aches for them.

He was a good kid who grew up to be a fine man - we are all lessened by his loss.

The Navajo and most of the other American Indian tribes are a part of what makes America great. I had the pleasure to travel by 4x4 through their reservation with my wife and kids many years ago and was just blown away by their hospitality, art and culture.

It is not surprising that they are patriotic Americans and have made sacrafices to the security of our nation.

My prayers are with the family of the American and Navajo hero.

My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Chris Moon. Thanks for reminding us of what is really important for us to remember....OUR TROOPS.

Last month was the deadliest month for our fighting men and women since the beginning of the war. July will prove even deadlier.

At least with the ongoing protests under Bush, we didn't forget, we held rallies...now 2014 has been requested and not a peep from the Left.

Not a chance!!! We need to bring them home-mission accomplished.

Going West.

We re(a)d about this red man who wasn’t a commie, but of the red, white, and blue.
